My experience with Hives (Fung Mok)

14.3.12 - It has been exactly a week now since I was down with hives.  The attack came after my seafood pizza with the kids at home.  TH was out and it was raining that night, so we decided to order Dominos Pizza delivery for the very first time.  Guess I have to pay a high price for that nice pizzas, hmm:( Luckily, my kids didnt get it.

Rashes were all over the body and gradually made way to the face.  Rashes were tiny red dots but when I scratched them, it swelled and became huge red patches.  They were so itchy.  Went to Dr. Low twice and finally to Central Clinic, all didnt go well. Finally, I stopped the medication because it caused bad stomach pain and nausea too.  OMG, it was so painful until I hid myself in the toilet and cried in pain.  When it was all over, I just couldnt take those medicines anymore, so I depend on the calamine lotion that doc gave to apply on the rashes.  That is why the rashes go and come back until today.  TH brought me to Hong Meng sinseh for Chinese treatment and bought 2 packets of herbs for the hives.  It was bitter. Hope it helps.  Tonite, new rashes not sighted yet so far:) though I still feel a little itch somewhere over my body.  Guess I was already used to scratching my body the whole night long for a week now and somehow I am conditioned.

This one week school holiday was ruined by my hives.  Initially I planned to take the kids out to park, library, P.Street, badminton games, PD, K.Selangor, etc. during the holiday. So far we did none.  At least today, I managed to teach them how to fry an egg and they learnt well. Even though I can only watched them enjoy their own fried egg and couldnt eat together, I am still happy.  Actually, I am under a strict diet due to the hives, cant eat seafood, chicken, beans, some fishes, egg, nuts, etc.  And because I am not too obedient, my rashes took so long to heal.  Anyway, I hope I can wake up tomorrow feeling fresh and healthy once again.  Our dear TH wants to take us to P.Street for a nice lunch.  Lord, pls let me sleep well tonite, Amen!
